About This Perfume
Bois 1920 Vetiver Ambrato smells like green lemon garden, herbal clove and amber warmth. It opens with galbanum, lemon and petitgrain, moves into clove, geranium and lavender and settles on amber, labdanum and vanilla. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring, fall and winter and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days. Released in 2005.
Wearers report that it lasts well into the evening, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
- Sample first if: spicy is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike woody fragrances.
Around $104.

The verdict

- Casual
Bois 1920 is a Florentine niche house whose identity is anchored in dry, resinous woods and Italian herbal-spice compositions. The range is overwhelmingly unisex (37 of 37 pieces), with feminine (4) and masculine (3) filling out. Family coverage: fresh (15), gourmand (9), woody (8), floral (2), warm amber (2). Top accords are woody, spicy, floral, sweet and fruity. Prices run from about $60 to $240, solidly mid-tier Italian niche. Standout live picks: Itruk (spicy juniper smoke over oud leather), Oro 1920 (smoky leather jacket, warm resin and tobacco), and Sacro E Profano (spiced rose incense warmed by oud). If you're building an Italian-niche shelf alongside Gritti and Xerjoff, Bois 1920 is the drier, more resin-and-incense-leaning peer, less sweet than Xerjoff, less smoky-modern than Gritti.
